She is in New York for the month of October to work with The Actors Center and teach privately. Her work is reflected in dozens of award-winning performances in notable projects, includingย Oppenheimer, Elvis, Vengeance, Manchester by the Sea,ย White Lotus,ย Burlesque, Anne Boleyn,ย Murder Mystery,ย Queen & Slim, Iron Man,ย Aladdin,ย White Boy Rick,ย and the forthcomingย True Detectiveย directed by Issa Lopes,ย Doug Limanโ€™sย The Instigator, Cary Fukunagaโ€™sย Masters of the Air, and Jamie Lloydโ€™s West End revival ofย Sunset Boulevard, starring Nicole Scherzinger.
